Star Wars Splash Page

We're back for this month's issue and what a collection of Star Wars comics that Matt Moore and Jeff McGee have to fuss about and discuss! And phone books. Lots of phone books. (OK, not so much the phone books.) But before we do that, our heartfelt thanks to all who cast their votes for us in the literature category in the first Star Wars Podcast Awards. Though we didn't win, your listening to our...

More than four months after it was supposed to be released, the Star Wars Special: C-3PO one-shot by James Robinson and Tony Harris was finally released on April 13 and Jeff McGee and Matt Moore simply couldn't -- and wouldn't -- wait another two weeks to talk about it. Who could, really? Our verdict? It was worth the wait. Why? Listen to our first -- and not likely last -- one-shot special episod...

Co-hosts Matt Moore and Jeff McGee swing through four issues in this month's outing, including the penultimate issue of our favorite Kanan, as well as back-to-back issues of Darth Vader and, lastly, but not least, the new story arc "Rebel Jail" that begins in the pages of Star Wars 16. We also discuss the big plans Marvel has for the upcoming Star Wars: Poe Dameron monthly that debuts on April 6 i...

It's been awhile, but not as long as the wait for Episode VIII is going to be. Still, it was worth it, given co-hosts Matt Moore and Jeff McGee dive into the comics released since our last issue back in January. (Has it really been almost a month?) and also examine the final sales estimates for comics in 2015, as compiled by John Jackson Miller at his Comichron website. Kanan, issue #10 (just two...

After a holiday break -- and a momentous distraction at the cinema -- the Star Wars stories in Marvel's comics are calling to us again and are they ever loud! (Have you felt it?) From the conclusion to the best-selling Vader Down crossover to further exploration of a young Caleb Dume's performance as a padawan in the Clone Wars to finding out what, exactly, happened to that medal Chewbacca got for...

While we may be light on issues -- it's just Star Wars Annual #1 and Star Wars #13 -- this 12th issue of Comics With Kenobi is laden with detail and discussion from hosts Matt Moore and Jeff McGee about the ongoing Vader Down Crossover and the pulling back of the curtain on Coruscant, too. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------...

Vader is down, but actually Darth Vader is really up. So far up that all the hype surrounding the six-issue crossover IS worth it! He's also amazingly lethal and so precise that it's scary. Sidious plus Dooku plus Darth Maul plus Kylo Ren scary. But that's just one part of this issue of Comics With Kenobi as hosts Jeff McGee and Matt Moore examine how Caleb Dume reacts to becoming a padawan in the...

This time it's really issue 10 and we're three-fifths of the way through Chewbacca and seeing some solid character development for our favorite walking carpet and learning even more about some of our favorite characters and how they deal with adversity. Meanwhile, in the pages of Darth Vader #12, friendships are forged -- as much as anyone can call a Dark Lord of the Sith "friend" -- and hosts Mat...

For Issue nine -- not 10, we swear it -- things get deep as we discuss the conclusion of Journey to Star Wars: The Force Awakens -- Shattered Empire, noting not just its role in leading up toThe Force Awakens, but how it exemplifies a shift in attitude toward major female characters not named Princess Leia or Mon Mothma, that being that they not just survive, but appear to thrive. We also discuss...

In today's issue, Matt Moore and Jeff McGee are literally buried by an avalanche of Star Wars comics, with issues from Darth Vader, Star Wars, Shattered Empire and Lando taking center stage for deep discussion, analysis and a search for not just clues about The Force Awakens, but also references to events, people and places from the prequel and original trilogies, too! ----------------------------...

In today’s issue Matt Moore and Jeff McGee welcome Marvel Comics editor Heather Antos! She's got lots to talk about when it comes to Star Wars, the Star Wars comics and how such delicate and deeply intricate stories are told, given they're all in canon. We also parse parse the events of the second arc of Star Wars: Kanan, as the team from Star Wars: Rebels returns to the planet Kaller, site of som...

In today's issue Matt Moore and Jeff McGee dive deep into the first issue of Journey to Star Wars The Force Awakens: Star Wars: Shattered Empire and elaborate on some of the clues they've found that will tie into December's release of The Force Awakens, including a name that you've not heard in a long time. OK, actually, you've heard it often this year ....They also look at Darth Vader #9 and expr...

In today's issue, Jeff McGee and Matt Moore give fair warning about how epic Marvel's upcoming Shattered Empire mini-series is likely to be, talking in depth about the crux of its lead characters and how the stalwarts we know and love from the films aren't likely to be front and center. Then we dive, deep, into all of the Star Wars comics being published by Marvel, discussing the merits of Kanan #...

In today's show, Jeff McGee and Matt Moore talk about Marvel Comics' Star Wars #7, which sports the first of what we hope will be several one-issue tales about Obi-Wan Kenobi during his time on Tatooine, watching over Luke Skywalker. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Star Wars Splash Page  is a w...

It's Issue 2 of Comics With Kenobi and features the first appearances of songwriter Chris Cage -- he wrote the song we use for our theme -- and comics artist Daniel Warren Johnson of Chicago whose wordless, 11-page story of the A-Wing pilot who sacrificed himself to bring down a super Star Destroyer.  We explain, thanks to Todd Allen, why comics cost the same on store shelves and on digital ones,...
